The Itat Formation is a geologic formation in western Siberia. It was deposited in the Bajocian to Bathonian stages of the Middle Jurassic.[1] Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, including the proceratosaurid Kileskus, caudata Urupia monstrosa, therapsida Amphibetulimus, Itatodon, Simpsonodon, Hutegotherium, Sineleutherus and dryolestidae Anthracolestes.[2]

Locality

Most of the fossils were found in the overburden of Berezovsk coal mine, which is located in southern Krasnoyarsk Krai near the border with Kemerovo Oblast. the deposit is stratigraphically located in the upper member of the formation. The fossils were largely obtained by screenwashing of the debris. 10-15 tons of material have been processed so far.
